Carson and Andrea's idea of getting their animals ready for the fair is a little different than ours. For example, in the first picture above Carson is supposed to be teaching his goat to lead. Not taking a ride on the big wheel with Skippy in tow.<br />

Andrea is trying to tame her sheep by reading stories to them. She show them the pictures as well. Hum? Only time will tell. The fair is next week and they are excited. Jensen will also be showing one of these sheep and she thinks she is doing a good turn daily by reading to his sheep as well.Cherileehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03762163237636434408noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1576098729205188450.post-50917576964486904782013-03-24T20:10:00.000-07:002013-03-24T20:10:06.934-07:00Chalisse's Junior Prom<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I couldn't have been happier! He probably figured since I made him bike 26.2 miles last year I would mind running a half marathon this year. Well, he was right! He knows that half marathons are my favorite.<br />I loved the Crandall Canyon Half Marathon. It is a fast downhill course that starts in the canyon and ends in the canyon at the memorial. It is beautiful. I also got a new PR 1:34:00. I was the first woman in, and 5th overall. Not to shabby!<br />Greg stopped at every mile marker and took a picture of me and cheered me on! I have the best hubby in the world!Cherileehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03762163237636434408noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1576098729205188450.post-36624858470654933782011-07-25T16:38:00.000-07:002011-07-25T16:50:06.764-07:00Hobbler Half Marathon Double the Fun!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXYpB1kkH3VnuPeMBURapw7me5lLvAr_ZvC_fDcZXvNQgocFSLEQgHTRXL2b9oTPqd77vFdLbPCWic1xZTYIrY1Lzy7WiJw7HGihGTg4e39d19lplLY4iPwoyLdtHW09ZjKNSbtMhbPFU/s1600/100e2157.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 321px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5633439054741611330" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXYpB1kkH3VnuPeMBURapw7me5lLvAr_ZvC_fDcZXvNQgocFSLEQgHTRXL2b9oTPqd77vFdLbPCWic1xZTYIrY1Lzy7WiJw7HGihGTg4e39d19lplLY4iPwoyLdtHW09ZjKNSbtMhbPFU/s400/100e2157.jpg" /></a> July 9th, my daughter Chalisse joined me in running the Hobbler Half Marathon. We both had a great time. It is probably the prettiest half marathon I've ever ran and it was very well organized as well. I couldn't have asked for more. Greg and Jake cheered us on our 13 mile journey down the canyon. We both had PR's that day! I was also able to take 2nd place in my age group with a time of 1:36:04. Chalisse took 4th place in her age group with a time of 1:58:59. This was also her very first half marathon, and she has been cross training in swimming everyday. There is no way I could ever compete with that. Woot!

There are a variety of resources available to deal with the perpetrators, but there's not much out there to help the victims of these crimes. The victims are kids. The NO MORE VICTIMS foundation is a charity organization to help kids who have fallen victim to sexual abuse. They help these kids when no one else can. The proceeds from the Memorial Day Classic event in Syracuse today will directly benefit these kids.<br />This was my first time running for a charity event. So even though Mother Nature didn't wish to cooperate, that wasn't going to stop me. Hopefully my shoes will dry out so I can get back on the road. Finish Time 1:41:39.

He took the "Golden Egg" out of his basket and handed it to him.

First, was running five marathons. Second, was obtaining my hunter's safety in hopes of shooting my first deer. Well, I obtained my hunter's safety the week after my 5th marathon and on the last day of of December I shot my deer. My family gets deprivation tags every year for their property since they graze out of our orchards and/or crops all year. This year, I had a tag with my name on it. I'll admit that Jake and Greg wouldn't take a shot at a deer until I got mine. But anyhow I did it. Now I will have food for my family. I kind of like hunting and think that Jake needs to give me his 243 and he can go get another one.<br /><div></div>Cherileehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03762163237636434408noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1576098729205188450.post-35957172871342802492010-12-05T19:53:00.000-08:002010-12-05T20:04:47.442-08:00Christmas Lights at Temple Square<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhU7iIbDf5j7zMHAuU7qqCuoJpmS5EA8DSVrD-eGLX15AoUbRonNbzIuPyWkjqaYwwlnoXsnQTze-lDXVd654tZ9bnpw4HFvH4aOFUGqxJCJLRZOzD70GY3KQ2tMBD8oys2pwdxtcQ7C5w/s1600/100_1758.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5547413530324136354" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhU7iIbDf5j7zMHAuU7qqCuoJpmS5EA8DSVrD-eGLX15AoUbRonNbzIuPyWkjqaYwwlnoXsnQTze-lDXVd654tZ9bnpw4HFvH4aOFUGqxJCJLRZOzD70GY3KQ2tMBD8oys2pwdxtcQ7C5w/s400/100_1758.JPG" /></a> It has been at least 12 years since Greg and I have gone down to Temple Square to see the Christmas lights.

I finished my goal that I set for this year running five Utah marathons. The St. George Marathon completed it for me. Although it was well organized and the course was great, the weather prevented me from doing my best.<br />They had a record breaking hot day for that time of year. When I left the hotel at 4:00 am it was 57 degrees outside and it only warmed up from there, which left me finishing when it was cooking.<br />I found it odd that they would put <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">bon</span> fires at the start if no one stood around them. Runners were applying sunscreen instead on Ben-gay. It is also the first marathon that I have ever run seeing runners laying on cots lining the roads at the aid stations.<br />By mile 17, I had cotton mouth so bad, I had a hard time swallowing my GU. I tried to drink extra water/ Gatorade at the aid stations but this left me with a side ache so after 4 miles of this, I just dumped several cups of water on top of me. My legs felt great and my knee didn't give me any problems. Finally, at mile 25 they handed out wet towels which gave some relief to the 94 degrees quickly approaching. I grabbed one and wiped down my body and ringed it out on the top of my head. I finished the marathon in 3:38:24. still pulling a Boston Qualifying time, but I couldn't imagine why everybody thought this was such a great marathon. It wasn't until I got back to the hotel and went out swimming with my kids and talked with other runners in the pool who had run this before that this was extremely unusual and they had a hard time with the heat as well.<br />I would like to run the St George Marathon again just to gain a true picture of what it is normally is like. I am so <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">grateful</span> for Greg and for all of his support. He ran three miles that day in the heat with a backpack to snatch this picture of me at mile 21. I was in my happy little place in my head so I did not see him at all. <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">Chalisse</span> ran the three miles with him as well so she could let my mom and Jensen know, who were waiting at mile 23, that I was on my way.Cherileehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03762163237636434408noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1576098729205188450.post-28943508656217707862010-09-25T14:51:00.000-07:002010-10-03T17:39:47.367-07:00Yay I Finished It! -- Top of Utah Marathon 2010<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwJGLKf3EMjXevRF35hYdmrNHVNadDx9llPCMTfbjgO3Y2TdDHuW3Qr8Z_nB3ofEx9g24rm1tHY8CKb306Edk9S6LmydvBDnVt0ybfc3csC9lrchuomz2B9numyweGQRwzcVzzgprD9pU/s1600/100_1631-1.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 319px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5520972429418226258" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwJGLKf3EMjXevRF35hYdmrNHVNadDx9llPCMTfbjgO3Y2TdDHuW3Qr8Z_nB3ofEx9g24rm1tHY8CKb306Edk9S6LmydvBDnVt0ybfc3csC9lrchuomz2B9numyweGQRwzcVzzgprD9pU/s400/100_1631-1.jpg" /></a> I finished marathon #4 for this year. I love to run the Top of Utah Marathon. It is one of my favorites. This was my third year running it and each time I have improved. After my injury, I was pretty worried about even being able to run this marathon. In the month of August I only ran a total of about 30-35 miles. I was pretty worried, I knew I could run it by September but my cardio had gone down quite a bit. Biking helped a little but not much. What helped the most was seeing a great sports medicine dr that knew exactly what to do and to get me through this. We were pretty agressive the month of September. I went to physical therapy and did under water treadmill running twice a week. I did two long runs outside in September so I felt I was good to go.<br />The thing with plica syndrome is the more miles you run, the better your knee feels. (That is if you can get past the first 3 or so). By mile 13 by knee no longer hurt, but by mile 17-18 the muscle cramps started so I ran this marathon pretty much in pain the whole time.<br />I finished the marathon in 3:47:16. which the dr thinks is pretty darn good to have a goal to just finish it.<br />My reason for finishing this was because I am planning on running the St. George marathon on Oct 2nd. I didn't make the lottery into the St. George marathon this year but I made it into the Grand Slam, so the St George marathon in one of the required marathons to earn the title of a Slammer. The catch is as long as I run the other required marathons, they have to guarantee my entry into the St. George. (That is why all I had to do was to finish this marathon.)<br />So watch out #5 here I come!Cherileehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03762163237636434408noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1576098729205188450.post-26731998701032140482010-09-11T16:55:00.000-07:002010-09-11T17:47:18.434-07:00County Fair 2010 -- Another SuccessWe had another wonderful year at the fair this year .

I walked in the room to find all the <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">thera</span> bands wrapped around him with my mat rolled out. Perhaps if you use all the bands at once, it wouldn't take half as long. It's amazing what kids think of.</div>Cherileehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03762163237636434408noreply@blogger.com0
